Answer 2

3000 hens must be sold after 50 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

A poultry farm having 5000 hens has provision for 250 days.

1 hen has provision for = 250 × 5000

                                      = 1,25,000 days

After 50 days 5000 hens have provisions for 200 days.

1 hen has provision for =  200 × 5000

Let the number of remaining hens be 'x'

By applying equivalent method

$\frac{5000}{500}=\frac{x}{200}$

5000 × 200 = x × 500

10,00,000 = 500x

x = $\frac{10,00,000}{500}$

x = 2000

Therefore, (5000 - 2000) = 3000 hens must be sold after 50 days.
